Obviously not arguing about Wenger here, but how can anyone not see Mourinho has lost the plot here?
From a treble with Inter (albeit in a very weak Serie A year), to 1 single league title with Real, one single Copa del Rey and not a single CL final. With the most expensive team in the world. And as soon as he's gone, Real wins the CL.
That should tell you a lot.
Of course he has. I'm not sure whether or not this season in particular is a fluke and there's no way of knowing that until he gets another job.
Mourinho manages results, not clubs. And again, he went into situations with clubs that were expected to win, with huge resources, and established rosters set in place. He's done a horrible job of furthering prospects and developing much of anything. We've seen more examples of him ruining players, and leaving teams in shambles. He's been fired 3 times.
Look at him and what he's done. Who the **** would want this guy managing their club? I would kill myself if he took over Arsenal. There are variables with the squads that these managers have control of to.
Would you actually want him to manage Liverpool? Make a poll of people who would actually want this fool anywhere near their club. Pretty sure only existing Chelsea fans would say yes.
Also, Mourinho with Real Madrid was a gigantic failure. Just massive.
Well, let's not act like your dislike of anything him is anything but entirely personal. My dislike of him is driven by the same thing. It's quite unfair to say he's done a bad job with prospects too given that he's been at clubs that don't have players who can make the grade. I know some Chelsea fans would disagree with that, but there hasn't been a single manager who's been there and tried to bring any of those supposedly great prospects forward. It's the philosophy of the clubs he's been at to not bring forward their youth. Inter for example, the only player on their team they developed themselves was Santon, and they sold him to Newcastle before just getting him back.
But, your statement about him leaving teams in shambles is very much not true. Porto, Chelsea, and Real Madrid were all left in great shape. Chelsea this time, who knows, we'll have to see what happens. Inter was an older team built to win immediately and they did that, that was a job done.
Do you also realize how much money that Mourinho has lost some of these teams? Lost Chelsea hundreds of millions with his horrible management. h
Don't fixate yourself on results that dozens of managers would replicate if they were in the same situation. Look at the bigger picture and you'll realize how wrong you are on him LITN.
Chelsea hasn't lost much of anything given that they're owned by a super rich thug with money to throw away. Their financial losses are genuinely irrelevant.
I'd like to see Mourinho take on a job like Valencia after this season. Would be similar to when Simeone took on the Atletico job. Both teams are/were capable of winning despite their limitations.
